When either button is selected (the buttons are shown pressed in), then it's not
possible to change the state of individual items. Un-select the buttons to enable the
normal operation of the layer visibility and locking state.
Clicking the
MORE button will display menu options to SHOW ALL ON PAGE and
UNLOCK ALL ON PAGE.
Moving Objects Between Layers
There are several ways to move objects between layers. First select the object or
objects you want to move, then;
CUT the object ("Ctrl + X" or right click and CUT). Ensure the target layer is the
current layer (shown with
, click the layer if it's not) and then right click and
choose
PASTE or PASTE IN PLACE. Note that if you cut or copy multiple items that
are on different layers, the layer structure is preserved when you paste. Items are
pasted to the same layer they were copied/cut from, instead of being pasted to
the current layer. If you want to paste all such items to the current layer, ignoring
the layer structure, use the
PASTE IN CURRENT LAYER option instead. If you want to
retain layer structure, choose
PASTE IN PLACE IN CURRENT LAYER. These paste
options are also in the clipboard fly-out bar on the top bar, as well as the
EDIT
menu.
Right click and choose
ARRANGE then MOVE TO LAYER IN FRONT / MOVE TO LAYER
BEHIND
to shift the selected objects one layer up or down.
Ensure the target layer is selected as current, then find the selected item in the
PAGE & LAYER GALLERY (click the LOCATE button), right click and select MOVE TO
CURRENT LAYER
